AIAW - Atlas V8

[onetoe]

Kasey did a great job with the new spigget and the V8 bipod. This system works extremly well with the AI chassis without making any modifications.
You can use it all the way to the end of the chassis or you can put it in the middle for shorter shooting platforms or to shorten your engagement radius. You can also mount it 90 degrees for when sadistic match directors make you roll your rifle on its side.

1 - V8 Bipod with ADM quick disconnect part# BT10LW17
2 - V2 Spigget part# BT19
3 - The picatinney rail system for the spigget is a BT20

Four of my favorite things are Accuracy International Artic Warfare Rifles, Schmidt & Bender Scopes, Atlas Products and 6.5 mm Creedmoor.

Very nice! I want the same setup for my AI stock. Who is Kasey and where can I buy the parts?

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

Very nice. I'm also interested in a couple of them.

Is the rail section on the bottom of your stock also made by Accu-shot? If so, what's the part # on that? If not, who is it mfg'd by?
Thanks.

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

I can't seem to figure out what the actual difference is between the BT10LW17 and the BT10-NC. The BT10-NC is $60 cheaper, but the picture used on the website is the same as the BT10LW17.

The BT10-NC seems like what you'd want to use in conjunction with the BT19 v2 spigot as it specifically mentions AI in the description. Does the BT10LW17 come with some type of QD clamping mechanism that the BT10-NC does not?

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

The BT10LW17 comes with the Arms #17 clamp.

I just run the BT10-NC (no clamp) attached directly to the BT19. It's a cleaner install but you will be restricted to using the Altas only on AI chassis.

This is not an issue for me, but if you have multiple railed weapons that you want to swap the Atlas to, the setup as shown above may work better for you.

I prefer how low profile the Altas is with just the AI Spigot:

They are a thing of beauty

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

Ah yes, thanks LoneWolf. I'll probably opt for the NC model as well, I like how clean that is.

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

Makes me want to send in my Atlas for the upgrade.

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

Yea, who makes the rail that you have on the bottom of the stock?

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

Well, I caved! Used my santa money on a noclamp and AI spigot. Hopefully they're shipping in a timely fashion, I hate waiting.

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

Cool setup! I like your's better than my AI Bi-pod and butt-spike.

 

[joe_skeeter]

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

Is it difficult to replace the ai butt-spike with the monopod in your pictures?

Don't know. I ordered mine without a spike so that I had the ability to use the Mono-Pod. I will probably order one early next year to give it a try.

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

I am going to order one this week. Do all the spigots have the thumbwheel now? On the atlas website I don't see them but I assume they have not updated the photos yet. I will ask when I call but if anyone knows post it up. Thanks.

If I keep buying top notch gear I wont have anything to blame my bad shooting on. LOL

 

[LoneWolfUSMC]

Re: AIAW - Atlas V8

IIRC yes, all current spigots have the tension wheel.

It really makes the whole setup work well.

I agree, the original AI butt-spike is really nice. I have one on one of my rifles and it is infinitely adjustable. Either in vertical clicks or with a thumb wheel. But in lieu of that the accu-shot works very well. Normally I use it in the folded position with my sandbag underneath it. I dont use it the same as the AI butt-spike.

I will have to double check that. I thought that it was but I didn't delve into it greatly because I didn't really want it.
